Super Theory of Super Everything

I watched “Emily Levine’s Theory of Everything”.
I enjoyed her discussion in the beginning of the talk about Americans and their hatred of knowledge. “We respect the head, but are very anti-intellectual.” She was also right-on about the theatre games, their purposes. In most improv games, as I well know, the number one rule is never say never. One must always accept another’s reality and try to improve it as well as they can. We all seem to live in a world of our own realities, a point I wish to impress in my paper.
Why are we all so anti-knowledge? What’s the point of the apathy if we all need to know in the end where we’re going and what we’re doing? It’s not helping anything. I think polls are a load of baloney, though. It is true, whenever studies find people who don’t know about what they’re asking, it’s always two percent who don’t know the answer to the question. I guess they’re giving us leeway. It’s still dumb.
It made me wonder, though: what would really happen if we all tried to do as the theatre folk do and better everyone else’s reality? Would the outcome not be the same as it is right now? No one reality would still exist, and there would still be a lot of conflict over what was right… except there’d be bigger groups of people fighting. There’d really be no difference between a selfish motive and a selfless one. Selflessness barely even exists today. I wonder how that would be.
